Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention.
There’s difference between Local businesses search & Local Service ads.
# Local business search: When users search for businesses on Google Search or Maps, Search results may display a prominent Google knowledge panel with details about a business that matched the query.
This is what Rank Math offers. You can learn more about it from here: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/structured-data/local-business
# Local service ads: It’s a service offered by Google which helps you connect with people who search on Google for the services you offer. Your ads will show up for customers in your area, and available in Canada as well. Here you can check:

Having said that LocalBusinesses Schema is necessary to let Google know that you own a business and help potential user reach out to you.
Hope that helps, and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
Thank you
